Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 2021

The first important thing has been decided, now it's the turn of the second thing. Xiao Yunde's eyes were sharp and he asked directly, "Do you have a woman you like? If so, we can choose a day to decide; if not, I will arrange it for you immediately."

The puppet Jiuru was struck by lightning, with a look of panic on his face, "Father, I am not even sixteen yet!"

What a sin! Father, please be a human being. I am still a child!

Xiao Yunde pondered for a moment, then said earnestly, "Before you ascend the throne, the marriage can be arranged by your father alone. After you ascend the throne, this marriage will become a major event for the entire court. You should consider the pros and cons yourself."

I'm doing this for your own good, little bastard!

It was like a bolt from the blue! Puppet Nine's good mood suddenly turned sour, and he even stuttered, "Your son, your son doesn't necessarily, doesn't want to get married..."

"Originally, if your fourth brother had been more capable, I wouldn't have bothered with you. Whether you get married, when you get married, and with whom you marry is all up to you. But..." This turn of events came without abruptness, "Now the situation has changed. If you marry before you ascend the throne, you can catch the court officials off guard. Then your wife will be directly enthroned as empress, and my Northern Wing will have both a new emperor and a new empress. The next day, I will also announce that you, the emperor and empress, must fast in a temple for three years to pray for the well-being of the country. This way, the court officials will have no opportunity to take advantage of you, and there will be no reason to keep an eye on your harem all day."

Puppet Nine: “!!!”

My father is as shrewd as a devil. He has considered every aspect of this puppet of his so that not even a single mistake can be made.

Xiao Yunde raised his eyebrows and looked at his son who was being manipulated with interest. "When I entered the mansion just now, I saw a pretty girl. Whose family is she? I think she is suitable."

A pretty little girl? Xiao Jiu's pupils suddenly shrank, and he blurted out, "No! Pretty girl, absolutely not! I don't want her!"

If he really married that girl as his queen, his life as a puppet emperor would be even more difficult. Just thinking about it made his spine cold. This was absolutely not feasible!

Shi Anxia also became interested after hearing this, "Why? Xiao Pingting is loved by everyone, how can she not be worthy of you?"

"She, she, she, she always bullies me!" Xiao Jiu's face turned red, and he said firmly, "Anyway, I don't want it."

He was full of grievances and wanted to vent, but he felt that talking about a little girl behind her back was ungentlemanly.

That’s it, bear with it!

"If that's the case, then forget it." Xiao Yunde was open-minded and knew the principle of not doing to others what you don't want done to you. He felt guilty about arranging his son to be the puppet emperor, so he naturally hoped that he could live a more comfortable life. "Pick one that suits your taste and tell me when you're done."

Now that the big thing was decided, Xiao Yunde felt relieved and just waited for the four major families to take action to confirm the rebellion.

He walked towards the young master's residence, planning to quietly bring Tang Chujun back to the palace.

She wasn't around these few days, and he couldn't sleep every night.

This disease has no cure. Only Chu Jun can relieve his lovesickness. Thinking of this, Xiao Yunde raised the corners of his lips slightly, revealing a genuine smile that he hadn't seen for a long time.

Shi Anxia thought that her mother had gone to the palace, and her mother felt lonely in the young master's mansion, so she told Dong Xi to bring her over, "and bring Hong Yan as well."

Dong Xi responded with a hello, but he was not in a good mood.

Shi Anxia called her, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Dong Xi lowered his head.

"It's nothing, why do you look so depressed?" Shi Anxia didn't believe it.

Dong Xi gritted her teeth and said sullenly, "If Sister Bei Hui were here, she would never have let the Second Master break into Xia Shiyuan that day. It was my fault that I failed to do my job properly and made a mistake. I beg the Master to punish me."

Shi Anxia thought for a moment, "Rimulan was there that day, right?"

Dong Xi was stunned for a moment and wanted to say that it had nothing to do with Mu Lan, but he still nodded.

"Then I'll punish you two to count my private treasury and make a new register." Shi Anxia was thinking about adding more boxes to Xiao Pingting's dowry.

She could see that after some searching, the Ninth Prince would ultimately choose Xiao Pingting.
